I'm a beginner amatuer programmer and I was wondering how to go about writing a program that would constantly scan a group of offsets while FS9 is running. For example I want to turn on the leds of a phidgets card when the landing gear goes down and turn them off when gear is up. I've already written a simple console program that uses FSUIPC client and reads the offset of the landing gear once and turns on the led [see below] but how do I have the program run all the time and wait for the gear to change and turn on the led? Do I use the c# Timer class to call Process() and use conditional statements or an event delegate type deal? Thanks Dazed and confused using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; using Phidgets; using Phidgets.Events; using FSUIPC; using System.Threading; namespace FSUIPC_LED_Wrapper_dll { class Program { static LED myLed = new LED(); static void Main(string[] args) { myLed.open(); myLed.waitForAttachment(); try { FSUIPCConnection.Open(FlightSim.FS2K4); } catch (Exception ex) { Console.WriteLine(ex.Message); } Offset gearValue = new Offset(0x0BEB); FSUIPCConnection.Process(); Console.WriteLine("Gearup = 0 Gear down = 4194048 Value = {0}", gearValue.Value.ToString()); int gear = 4194048; if (gearValue.Value == gear) { myLed.leds[1] = 100; myLed.leds[2] = 100; myLed.leds[8] = 100; } Console.ReadKey(true); myLed.leds[1] = 0; myLed.leds[2] = 0; myLed.leds[8] = 0; FSUIPCConnection.Close(); myLed.close(); } } }
